Our culture continues to "train" males to be dominant, in control, and sexually/ physically aggressive

Some campus subcultures, especially Greek Life and athletic teams, are particularly susceptible to perpetuating the disrespect and victimization of females and the glorification of physical, sexual and psychological aggression

Our culture sometimes continues to blame women for their victimization by suggesting that women are "asking for it" by provoking their partners to violence

Extensive use of drugs and alcohol on campus tends to contribute to negative and aggressive interpersonal behavior

Adolescents and young adults are reluctant to confront peers about negative interpersonal behavior

Our culture pressures young people to be in and stay in romantic relationships; being "alone" is not viewed as being equally valuable

Couples can "get hooked" on the drama of their unhealthy, chaotic relationship, which makes it difficult to extricate themselves

On the campus, students sometimes stay in relationships for fear of continuously running into ex-partner after a break up, especially with new partners

On the campus, unhealthy relationships are sometimes not taken seriously enough to warrant professional help
